Chapter 1191 Troublesome Materials

Old Man Gongshu really didn't know what level of enhancement Yinglong's full set of armor was.

However, he could deduce this from Yinglong's status in that era.

The Celestial King led a group of gods to end the era in which four ancient gods ruled the world.

When integrating resources, the ability to enhance equipment was discovered. At that time, the Immortal King enhanced all his equipment to the maximum level, followed by his right and left arms.

As the top henchman of the gods in that era, Yinglong's set of armor was undoubtedly upgraded to the maximum level.

Snatching equipment from Luo Bingxin is a good option, but dealing with the Four Corpse Kings who are with him is quite troublesome.

That day, the crucial final battle.

When the Dark Rising Organization was defeated, the Immortal King's avatar also exhausted its divine power. Helpless, it could only leave the battlefield with Lin Yi and the Fuxi Talisman.

It wasn't easy for Lin Yin to defect, and the Fuxi Talisman was extremely rare and hard to come by. The Immortal King's divine power clone had no choice but to let Luo Bingxin go.

The divine soldiers led by the Eastern War God were indeed formidable in combat, but they were clearly not qualified to stop the Four Corpse Kings, so they had no choice but to let Luo Bingxin and the others leave.

After the battle, Luo Bingxin met an extremely tragic end.

He and Lao Xuan became targets wanted by the gods. They betrayed the Dark Rising Organization and caused the Four Corpse Kings to create so many obstacles for Dark Rising. Naturally, the Dark Rising Organization would not let them go.

Poor Luo Bingxin could only hide with Lao Xuan, trying to survive in the cracks.

After that, the Four Corpse Kings completely disappeared, and finding them was as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

"Putting aside how difficult the Four Corpse Kings are to deal with, do you know how difficult it is to find Luo Bingxin? If we can really find them, the Immortal King's intelligence network can truly be abolished."

Old Man Gongshu naturally understood this principle.

But what can he do?

Could it be that Lin Yi is to attack the Immortal King's people? In the Gods' camp, only the veteran high-ranking gods have enhanced equipment, and only those veteran high-ranking gods with the strongest strength are qualified to have a set of equipment enhanced to +100.

Taking the equipment from them and dismantling it would be quite difficult.

That's a max-level enhancement that can never be replicated.

The equipment they possess is crucial to their combat effectiveness; seizing it would be tantamount to taking their lives. There's only one way to forcibly take it:
They killed the person directly.

Leaving aside whether Lin Yi's current strength is sufficient to achieve this, even if he could, the difficulty of doing so without anyone noticing and without leaving a trace is unimaginable.

However, some other veteran gods possess one or two pieces of equipment that have been upgraded to the maximum level. If they manage to steal a high-ranking god, silence him, and do it cleanly, they can keep the matter a secret.

The problem is that even stealing one isn't enough to upgrade Lin Yi's entire set of equipment; they'll still have to do it several more times.

How can we ensure we won't get caught doing this?

Clearly, neither of these methods will work.

"So, old man, this matter can't be resolved?"

"Having endured humiliation and hardship for so long, I finally found an opportunity to close the gap with him. If I don't seize this opportunity, my chances of winning in the future will be even smaller."

Old Man Gongshu could certainly understand what Lin Yi meant by those words.

But old man Gongshu really had no choice.

She wasn't the best cook in the village to begin with. Without rice, meat, or vegetables, how could she possibly prepare a decent meal? "Don't worry about it. Even if you nag me every day, I probably still can't solve this problem. If you're capable, I'll teach you all the enhancement techniques I know. How much you eat is up to you. If you still can't handle it, then there's really nothing I can do."

The fact that the old man Gongshu has put his words to this extent proves that he has truly tried his best.

This is not a problem that can be solved by pleading and cajoling.

Seeing Lin Yi's expression darken, Old Man Gongshu's mood wasn't much better.

The two were not only friends despite their age difference, but also shared the same goal.

Lin Yi wanted to defeat the Immortal King and overthrow his rule over the Three Realms and Six Paths. Gongshu Laotou also wanted to do the same, and even more so, he wanted to kill the Immortal King to avenge his family.

After some thought, the old man Gongshu came up with another idea.

"You participated in that great battle ten years ago, didn't you? Were any high-ranking gods killed in that battle? If so, see if you can salvage one from their corpses?"

This is something you can just think about.

Equipment with maxed-out enhancement levels is a rare commodity in the entire Three Realms and Six Paths. Even if a high-ranking god who possesses such rare items were to perish on the battlefield, the Immortal King would certainly retrieve them. How could Lin Yi possibly have the chance to make such a move?

unless
Unless the place where it fell is beyond the reach of even a Celestial King!
"It seems there really is!"

Having been a member of the Gods' faction for ten years, Lin Yi has basically figured out the entire faction.

The term "gods" refers to the various celestial deities from different factions.

The gods of different factions are all openly and secretly fighting for their own interests.

This is why the Dark Rising Organization was able to seize control of the Desire Realm for a period of time.

As time went by, the gods of various factions increased their strength considerably. In particular, the leaders of each faction felt that their strength had surpassed that of the Celestial King and that they could replace him. This caused the weight of the Celestial King's orders to become quite low.

During that time, only the Ancient Buddha Lingming of Lingdu Mountain continued to lead the people and support the Immortal King.

Unfortunately, Lingming Ancient Buddha perished while trying to help the Immortal King seize Nuwa's spirit.

Such a heroic act of sacrificing himself became widely known among the gods, and the Celestial King even posthumously honored and rewarded him for it.

On the surface, the death of Lingming Ancient Buddha was not problematic; it was a heroic sacrifice made for the benefit of the leadership.

However, the higher-ranking and clear-headed gods all understood that the Ancient Buddha Lingming did not die a heroic death; rather, he failed to recognize his own position and offended the Celestial King, which led to this outcome.

Given Lingming Ancient Buddha's status, he must be wearing full-level equipment, which meets Gongshu Laotou's requirements for dismantling equipment.

Secondly, the Ancient Buddha Lingming perished in the secret realm where he obtained Nuwa's spirit.

Even someone as strong as him failed in this, let alone the other members who were even weaker. It was already quite an achievement that he was able to successfully hand over Nuwa's spirit to the Immortal King.

It's practically impossible to retrieve the equipment of the fallen Lingming Ancient Buddha in such a dangerous secret realm.

Having obtained Nuwa's spirit, the Immortal King probably won't care about the secret realm dungeon anymore, nor will he worry about the equipment of the Lingming Ancient Buddha that was left in the dungeon.

It's a real shame to leave a full set of +100 level mythical equipment in the secret realm, but with Nuwa's spirit taken away, the secret realm can no longer be opened, so the equipment can't be obtained and won't fall into the enemy's hands.

When the old man Gongshu was halfway through recounting the deeds of the Ancient Buddha Lingming, he was quite pleased. But as soon as he finished speaking, his face darkened.
